DrRacket Quickscript of the day

Don't wait for Jack Firth’s resyntax, fix your #t and #f today!

(resyntax is an experimental refactoring tool built on top of syntax-parse.)

(require quickscript)
(script-help-string
 "Replaces all occurrences of #t and #f with #true and #false in the selected text (warning: in strings too!)")
(define-script fix-true-false
  #:label "fix-true-false"
  (λ (selection)
    (regexp-replaces selection '([#px"#t\\b" "#true"] [#px"#f\\b" "#false"]))))

Quickscript is included in DrRacket, and scripts are managed by the Script menu. See the documentation at https://docs.racket-lang.org/quickscript/

FYI @jackfirth & @metaxal

[spdegabrielle]

@pmatos can the code appear in racket news? The intention is this is a separate ‘article’ in RN.

[pmatos]

Sure - lets try this as a different article this week. :)

[pmatos]

My biggest concern is generally, how long we can keep it up. As in, how many different quickscripts are there? :)

[spdegabrielle]

So many! We can make it a regular feature and run it for the next year easily.

OK - lets give it a go.

[Metaxal]

Can you add the following line after the script, if possible:

If you have installed the url2script quickscript, you can use it to install the script above with this link.

If this is a recurrent thing, this line above will appear each time. (url2script eases installation and update of the scripts)

[Metaxal]

But don't bother if that makes RN too bulky because of that, of course!
